fancy a game of golf!!!!

Good afternoon to all my lovely cyber friends, sorry if i get the occasional typo, im writing with those darned metal wrist splints on lol,
 isnt it a better day today lol tho it wont be lasting as its given rain for tomorrow, so whilst its nice i have washed the voiles and gotten them on the line lol,
Ive been and had my hair done again this morning as it was in need of a trim and a colour to get rid of the ever returning silver hairs lol
-
Anyway on tuesday my mum gave me 2 orders that needed to be done for saturday!!!!
one was for a chap who likes golf(this card im showing you today will be for him)
and the other was to have cats on,
ill share that one with you later.
-
So Here is my golf card, if you didnt know already it is using a bugaboo image!!! arent these just amazing? i love every single one of those, espesh the humourous ones, im just deciding wether to add the lost my balls comment on the inside lol.
I made the card using the papermania papers, card candy, pastel blue card stock and lots of stickles lol, the sentiment i purchased from a cyber friend so not sure whos they are,
Here is a close up of my colouring, what do you think? ive been practicing alot these days as ive spent fair few evenings in on my own with hubby at work so took the chance to get my pro's and copics out,
can you see all that sparkle lol, im addicted to shiny things lol
I would love to enter this card into the following challenges
1- Charisma - Male cards
2- Do you stack up - Men/boys
3- Craft your passions - Anything goes
4- Dream valley - For that special guy
5- Sketch and stash - The sketch
My new stash is the fabulous image this is the first time i have used him and my old neglected stash is the papers and card candy, ive been using adhesive gems alot in place of card candy lately, 

So for now my lovely cyber friends i say see you later lol, if i get some time i will share another card with you in a bit.

Gone fishing!!!!

.Good afternoon guys, its been as per usual quite busy here at the house of tomlinson lol what with swim classes and combat classes lol,
I have made this card for a friend to give to her fella from thier kiddies, he loves fishing so i thought this lotv stamped image was perfect!!!
i coloured it in with my promarkers and added some stickles onto the water to add some depth and shine,
also i put on blue grossgrain ribbon but didnt want a bow so i ruffled it up and stick it on like this,
here is a close up to try and show you the water and my dodgy colouring lol, i can do some decent colouring sometimes but this one just didnt quite turn out how i wanted lol,
The papers are the old dovecraft masculine paper pack, i use these all the time as i love the look of the cards using these papers.

Anyway here is the card i completed yesterday for a friend wha asked me to make an easel card for her friend who was turning 50, she wanted something bright and modern and this is what i made!!!!
what do you think??
i used 2 different paper packs that i recieved free from kate knight, and a fabulous lotv square, then got my lace border punch out and used the blue paper id used for the matting to add a diff colour to the papers,
then popped gem brads in the prima flowers for a bit of bling!!
Also if you pop here regularly you may know im crazy and i mean crazy for stardust stickles!!! yep thats on the flowers in the paper,
then a flower brad to hold the easel up and voila lol
Ive tried to show the glittered pape here but it shines so much more than this
 And again a side view
